What a delightful little gem tucked away in Fall River, MA . Just a stone's throw from Battleship Cove. Stumbled upon this place and discovered it was worth coming back. My initial visit was on a Monday night when they had all kinds of cheese specials for $10. Including a delicious cheese pizza. However on my second trip I discovered the real value was on their Sunday specials where you get a soup or salad, 1/2 portion of lasagna, a choice of chicken entree and a special pasta. All for $29. Needless to say there were doggie bags coming home with us. Dani our server was a sheer delight and most punctual with her attention to us. Needless to say I will be returning for a third visit soon! read more

We were here last night with a party of 17 for a birthday celebration. We had a 7:30 reservation and weren't seated until about 7:45, which wasn't a huge deal. Unfortunately, that's where things started going downhill. It took 30 minutes before anyone even took our drink orders. During that time we weren't offered water, bread, or asked if we had any questions. Drinks, which were just water and soft drinks, took another 15 minutes to arrive. Around 8:45 our server finally came to take our food order and told us the kitchen had asked her to wait before putting it in. By that point, one person in our group had already left to get Wendy's because he was tired of waiting. Once we finally ordered, there were still no drink refills. We asked for waters for the table and were brought five glasses with, "I have five waters, who wants one?" We had 17 people. It was just kind of unbelievable. Our food didn't come out until almost two hours after we arrived. By then everyone was hungry and thirsty. There were two kids in our group, and it would have been nice if their meals had at least come out earlier. Or bring us bread or something to hold us over. We also had to ask for salt and pepper because there wasn't any on the table. They brought one set for all 17 of us. We asked for another and eventually got one more set. I understand large parties can be challenging, but if the restaurant can't handle a reservation that size, it probably shouldn't accept it. The one positive was our server. She was very nice and seemed to be doing the best she could. I really wish I could say the food made up for the wait, but it was just average. Nothing was bad, but nothing was memorable either. Overall, it was a really disappointing experience. read more

First visit to Primo, stopped by for an early dinner. The servers were really friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. I was only mildly hungry and ordered a side Caesar salad and the appetizer eggplant rolls. The salad was large, delicious, crispy, perfectly dressed. The eggplant rolls were stuffed with ricotta and spinach and marinara sauce, rolled and deep fried. FANTASTIC! read more

We decided to enjoy the patio on a Friday night. We were pleased with the outdoor space on the patio however it could be more comfortable for seating and umbrellas. Hubby ordered the linguini and clams with white sauce and he was very impressed with the flavors. Not many area restaurants have this one the menu! I ordered the margherita pizza with pesto and balsamic glaze.YUM! I would definitely get this pizza again. Our waitress was very nice and was able to serve us in a timely fashion. I was glad we returned to give Primo another try. You should too! read more

I've ordered from primos multiple times and it never disappoints. The crust on their pizza is the perfect amount of thinness and bite to it. The cheese is fresh and is melted to perfection - it looks like a basic pizza but tastes artisan. Staff is always super friendly and the food came out very timely. read more

I have to admit that I do not remember much about my trip to Primos other than I was really looking forward to having a chicken parm but then I was told that the chicken parm is not great here so I felt pressured and ordered the carbonara instead and then the carbonara was just ok :/ I think I had garlic bread or something else too but I really did just repress this entire memory omg read more

Post blizzard treat. First time here. Really fun atmosphere. Our waitress Kenzy was nicest young lady. We got veal Marsala and my wife got a mushroom pasta special. They were both top of the line. Fresh fettuccine and the perfect risotto. Drinks were on Point and the cappuccino was perfect temp. Will be back. read more

Visited Primo with some colleagues as we thought it was a waterfront restaurant. We did not realize it was just close to the water not waterfront. Outside of that the wait staff were super friendly and the appetizers were so good!!! We ordered the special cheesy garlic bread, the fried ravioli, and the risotto bites. We loved all three of these items. The entrees were okay but in my opinion not as good as the apps. We ordered the Lemon Citrus Cod (2) and the Chicken Parmigiana. The Cod was fresh but lacked flavor though my colleague who ordered the Chicken Parmigiana said it was really good. The portions were great for both the appetizers and entrees! You will not leave this place hungry we all had food to take home. One more thing even though we did not have a view of the water the outside seating was peaceful and calming..and if you try really hard you can see the river. A great summer night in Fall River. I would recommend this restaurant! Great for a date night, family night, or business dinner. read more

I've heard so many mixed things about this spot, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Interior nice and clean, and they are currently creating an outdoor patio which will be cute for the summer time. The food. The Pizza was EXCELLENT, great flavor thin crust, had some flop by far the best thing we ate. The chicken parm sandwich was good nothing to brag about, but wish they had used a different type of bread. The crème brûlée looked great but I think it was torched too long as the consistency was off but the flavor was excellent. Kay the waitress was super kind and friendly and gave different recs as well. All in all definitely come for the pizza and the salads that were not pictured! read more

Primo On Water Street - Sunday night, Special. Fettuccine Alfredo. Grandma's lasagna. ! Chicken piccata. Great water views. Nice decor. - Pizza Near Me - Fall River, Massachusetts

The staff were all super nice. The restaurant is cute with a nice event/bar space. It is very loud with the high ceilings which makes it a bit hard to converse with a large party. The pizza was really tasty. The Caesar salads were decent. The arancini bites were pretty tasty. This probably won't be a go to spot for me but I will for sure return. read more

I'm so glad we didn't listen to the bad reviews because this place is awesome! We had a lovely, friendly, efficient waitress (Jai) who listened when we said we had time restraints. She brought our delicious and warm pizza to us ASAP. It was a little noisy there, but it really was more alive than loud. The prices were reasonable- a large pizza was $18....same cost as take-out anywhere else. We will be back without time restraints...those desserts looked yummy! read more

Very over priced for portion sizes and dinners should include a salad. Spaghetti came out with very little sauce not very appealing. read more

My daughter's 5th Grade MetroWest basketball team made the playoffs and had practice tonight before their big game tomorrow. I thought it would be fun to organize a team dinner, even though it was very last minute, and reached out around 4:30 PM to a friend who is a chef at PRIMO to see if they might be able to accommodate us. At that point I didn't even know the exact number -- somewhere between 20-25 people. Within minutes he responded saying that they would make it work. We set a reservation for around 5:45/6 PM, which was incredibly generous considering how little notice I was giving them. After that, I sent a group message out to the parents and the reservation quickly grew. Before I knew it, we were up to 33 people (13 adults and 20 kids!). I reached back out to update him on the new number and without hesitation he said they would absolutely accommodate us. When we arrived, we were greeted with huge smiles and such a warm welcome. The staff was completely ready for our large group. Managing a party of 33 -- especially with 20 excited kids -- is no easy task, but they handled everything with patience, professionalism, and kindness. The service was amazing, the staff was incredible, and the food was outstanding. I truly cannot say enough good things about Primo. Their flexibility, hospitality, and willingness to accommodate us on such short notice meant so much to our team and parents. Thank you PRIMO for helping make a special night for our girls before their big playoff game! read more

We had vodka penne and hot honey pepperoni pizza. By far the best Italian I've had since leaving providence. Highly recommend. Service is great as well!!! Owner was on sight and checked in about how our meal was going. Very very good read more

Unfortunately, the food and service did not meet my expectations. The service was extremely slow, and it felt like we kept being forgotten. The steak tips were very overcooked, I could not chew them. I would've pointed it out to my waitress, but she did not come back for another 30 minutes. The parmesan fries were the highlight of the meal for me. read more

Loud band warming up at 7:30 while there's a line for dinner...awful idea. Nobody is here right now for this. 9:00, sure. Mic check 700 times by the band...I was in the restaurant business for over 15 years so I'm not new to it, you don't need a band this early. Our server Cameron was EXCELLENT, he was personable, and attentive. Host was very nice. Food is ok, meatballs were cold and when they were returned...microwaved to 300 degrees. read more

Too loud. Terrible service. Limited expensive menu. So wanted this to be a wonderful experience. Tied it again after giving it a 1 star review. Shannon came at me so I took it down and tried it again to be fair. Same! Not taking this one down. Sorry. Listen to your customers. read more

One hundred percent disappointed in this place.Ordered a simple pizza for me and my wife came out cold our server , told the manager sent it back. Waited 18 minutes for a new one. That one came out totally burnt. So now the general manager gets involved Asked us if we wanted something else. Now, it's already been almost 50 minutes. We decided just to go with something simple. The tower, well, guess what The fries had no cheese on them. Very little garlic and they were ice cold showed it to the general manager. Trying to be calm. Still. The general manager says, I am going to take care of your bill, well, me and my wife waited another 15 minutes. All of a sudden, the manager comes back and charges us for the Pizza. Because it was the lower price of each item. When again, the general managers said that they were going to take care of the bill very, very disappointed. So me and my wife did pay the bill. They did give us a $15 gift card which we will probably never use. Because of the service, please note that the server was very nice though. That was it completely throughout this ordeal. Thank you greg read more

This place is amazing! What a great restaurant to come to Fall River!! My husband had chicken Parmesan and he loved it. I had the basil tortellini Alfredo. The chicken was really good, I like how it was cut up into strips on top of the tortellini. The balsamic was so delicious. I really loved the flavors. We had the arancini risotto bites to start and they were the best I've ever had. The complimentary bread was really good, too! I had the Primo mule, it was perfect! What an amazing transformation this business has taken. The inside has the best ambiance. I love the way it looks and feels. The fresh flowers and plants are such a nice touch. You can tell that the owners have been in the business for a while and they really know what they are doing. We will be back soon! read more

Read the review from a customer regarding the soup. Stopped in and got a "to go" small container. The soup had a layer of what looked like fat/grease on top and the potato's were grey. I took a little spoonful and the soup was very very spicy/hot. Put it in the fridge to try again. Can't do it; the puddle of grease on top and the reminder of the taste, waste of money. Very overpriced. read more

My wife and I came here for the first time for our anniversary and the food was delicious and the affogato was amazing

Went to Primo's for the first time for my birthday. I was amazed by the renovations that have been made to the building from the prior restaurant. They look nothing alike. This is eclectic and nicely decorated. Our waitress was very attentive, super nice and helpful. My friend ordered the evenings limoncello chicken with risotto special and I ordered the chicken marsala both were very good. We ended the meal with lemon ricotta cake and coffee. We sat and talked for quite sometime and were never rushed or made to feel we overstayed our welcome which was such a pleasure. We were discussing an event we are planning and enjoying the atmosphere while doing so. The restaurant was not busy at the time but even if it were, I still think we would be treated the same way. I recommend people try this restaurant. We will be going back again soon. read more

I an thoroughly dissatisfied with this restaurant. The moment ny family walks in we are stared at by every waiter/waitress working, i didnt think anything of it at first but when we were being seated i saw the waitress keep looking at the table furthest to the back behind a wall which caught my eye but as before i didn't think anything of it it wasnt until we were seated that i realized that we were the only colored family in the restaurant... Okay thats fine but now we are seated for 20+ minutes and still no orders taken finally the waitress comes over to take drink orders and guess what NO Drinks on the menu at all not only that but we were never even served the bread that is supposed to be on the table while you order yet every other table has bread and refilled bread at that i am completely unsatisfied with this restaurant. 0/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND...! read more

Really good food, with awesome wait staff! Awesome atmosphere as well! We also had the sampler tower but wasn't able to take a picture because we ate it too fast. Definitely a family friendly experience and will be going back with the wife and kids! read more

Our first time! It's unassuming from the outside, in fact, parking was a challenge. But when we got inside we were pleasantly surprised by the decor and ambience. Additionally, there are two sides of the restaurant. I didn't figure out the what the theme was for each. But I found out as we arrived around 740pm and there was entertainment at 8pm. More on that. The menu was extensive, we started with mussels. They were very flavorful, with lots of garlic and chourico. My wife ordered the salmon on risotto and I had the pork shank. Bot meals were delicious and well cooked and presented. Although the music was a bit loud, it was later in the evening now and I learned that the place stayed open until 2am, explaining the band. Well, the music was right up my alley, we were singing along as we ate. Lol Overall a great experience, we will definitely return. The waitress we had was great! Sorry forgot her name. read more
